In 2005, the day after the anniversary of the destruction of both Temples, (10 Av 5765) Jews were thrown out of their homes in Gush Katif. The US Administration of that time pressured Ariel Sharon relentlessly to do the dirty deed, reminiscent of Nazi Germany’s actions against the Jews of Europe. I watched in horror as innocent Jews sat on their roofs, with huge signs begging the world to help them. The world turned it’s back on them.

One day after this evil decree was fulfilled, Hurricane Katrina formed. We all later witnessed fellow Americans sitting on their roofs, with signs begging the world to help them.
